[hp] warm as jade

After the accident last time, the Slytherin relationship returned to its original state—to be precise, it was the state at the beginning of school, neither as full of gunpowder as before, nor as intimate as last semester.

Many Slytherins also have some good feelings for Rong Jiu.The last time Rong Jiu invited them to eat dumplings, whether it was by hand or on purpose, they always received such kindness.

So when Rong Jiu sneaked out of the Slytherin common room on the pretext of going to the library the next day, he encountered some troubles.In the past, those people just pretended not to see her, and now they just casually ask, "Hi, Jiu, where are you going?"

"Go to the library, I still have some places to look up for the paper assigned by Professor Snape."

"Do you need to see mine? I've finished mine."

"Thank you, but I'd better go and see Professor Snape's homework by myself, you know." Rong Jiu shrugged, then turned around and saw Professor Snape standing not far away, with dangerous eyes Stare at them both.

Rong Jiu wailed in his heart, what's going on!

After finally escaping from the castle unobtrusively, Rong Jiu straightened her clothes and walked towards Hagrid's hut.At the time she chose, when most people were eating, or preparing to eat, she would rather wait in Hagrid's hut for a while than be seen by her Slytherin classmates, and then point and point, as if she was collaborating like the traitors of...

Thinking wildly all the way, he had already arrived in front of Hagrid's hut, Rong Jiu raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, when a familiar voice that sped up his pace of speaking because of anger suddenly sounded behind him: "You're still here."

Rong Jiu's paws froze in mid-air.

Then, like a clockwork puppet, it turned around slowly and paused.

"Hey Draco, what a coincidence hehehehe the weather is good today!" Rong Jiu hehehehe tried to prevaricate, but Draco's face was almost the same color as his short blonde hair.Rong Jiu subconsciously said: "Hey, why didn't you eat, your face is so hungry?"

A vein popped up on Draco's forehead: "Shouldn't you explain why you're here?"

"I'm actually...um...passing by..." Rong Jiu hesitated halfway, but Draco pulled him in front of him, and shook out a note with his other hand: "Then what is this?"

Hermione's handwriting was clearly displayed in front of her eyes.

Rong Jiu's heart sank.

She raised her head, her eyes suddenly regained her usual calmness: "So?"

Draco was taken aback by this attitude, and unconsciously let go of the hand holding Rong Jiu's shoulder.

Rong Jiu sighed: "Yes, I came to see Hermione. I asked her about what happened when Harry started school, and she asked me to meet and talk about it in detail."

Without waiting for Draco to say anything, Rong Jiu continued: "I know, you guys have a lot of opinions on my dealings with them, but I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I knew them before I had the concept of an academy, and I don't think I can Termination of our friendship because of the different colleges, not to mention they are very lovely people. You look at Harry, he is very sincere to his friends; you look down on Ron of the Weasley family, although he is a bit dull, but Always good-tempered to listen to you; your least favorite Hermione, you look down on her blood, but she is very smart and caring, she knows that Slytherin doesn't think highly of her, so she just communicates with me through owls , There are many times when we get stuck in our homework, it is she who completes it. Even you look down on Hagrid, but he is a very warm, simple, friendly and kind person. Although he is sometimes a little clumsy and has a different way of thinking, But he's always trying to make all kinds of good food, and serve it up when we come. Do you think I'm hurting Slytherins by hanging out with them?"

Draco was dazed for a moment by the long series of words, and finally found his way of thinking: "What kind of people should make friends with what kind of people, and if you associate with them, you will be willing to degenerate!"

"Then what kind of person are you?" Rong Jiu's words unconsciously tinged with thorns, "Draco Malfoy, the only young son of the Malfoy family, pure-blooded, with a prominent family background?"

This was something he was proud of, but when Rong Jiu said it in such a tone, he felt inexplicably embarrassed: "Then what's the problem?"

"So what if the person standing in front of me is still you, but called Ron Weasley?" Rong Jiu suddenly felt tired, "Are we friends? I'm not friends with you because your name is De Raco Malfoy, it's not because you're from the Malfoy family, it's not because you're pure-blooded, you come from a distinguished family. The person who became my friend was the one who first showed me kindness, the one who helped me adapt to life here Man, the one who finds time after class to teach me how to spell words, the one who's a little awkward, a little bit proud, but warm, kind, and knowledgeable. Even if you're Draco Weasley now, or even Draco Grande Jay, you're a complete Muggle, you can't do magic, and we'll still be friends."

Draco instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't refute Rong Jiu's words.

Rong Jiu clapped his hands in his heart and gave himself a big "yeah".

Sometimes it is still necessary to use some techniques in conversation, such as shifting the focus and secretly changing concepts.

She was about to make persistent efforts and used the eighteen martial arts skills of arguing with her grandmother to circle Draco, when suddenly there was a creaking sound in her ear, and the heat wave rushed out with the smell of milk, oh, and accompanied by a passionate The big dog put it into Rong Jiu's arms enthusiastically.

Now, Rong Jiu and Draco turned their heads together dumbfounded.

At the small doorway, three small people were crowded.One was covered with freckles, and even the tips of his ears were red; the other was clapping happily, his face drowned in tousled hair;Behind them, a big man seemed to be in the background, but his small eyes were filled with joy.

"Come in, come in quickly." The big man greeted, "It's windy outside, I have prepared milk candy, and I will follow the method Jiu gave last time... Oh, come in!"

Draco seemed to finally come to his senses, he snorted and was about to turn around, but he didn't take any steps, and was held by a pair of warm, soft hands.He turned his head angrily, but Rong Jiu looked at him expectantly with twinkling eyes: "They're all here, why don't you come in and have a seat?"

"I don't..."

"Come in, Hagrid's toffee is quite delicious." Harry looked at Draco sincerely.

"I am..."

"Come on!" Rong Jiu tugged him again.

Draco snorted again, shook off Rong Jiu, and straightened his robe: "Is there anything good in Malfoy's house, I don't care about this little candy?"

Rong Jiu laughed: "No, it's just that we care about you."

A faint blush appeared on Draco's face: "Who cares."

"All right, all come in."

Draco had a face of reluctance, but his obedient footsteps clearly told everyone:

I care.The flames are jumping and changing in the corner of the room, making a "beep" sound from time to time, and sometimes even a spark burst out with a "crack", decorating the space.

The flames reflected on the man's face, and his uncertain appearance showed a bit of ferocity.

Hermione and Rong Jiu were squeezed into the largest sofa, but fortunately, both of them were relatively slender, so it didn't look too crowded.The three boys were not treated so well, sitting on small benches one by one, as if a kindergarten was waiting for a row of well-behaved children to eat fruit.Fang was lying at Harry's feet coquettishly, and Harry unconsciously rubbed the top of Fang's head, which made it look very enjoyable.

Draco seemed very annoyed by the wooden chair, sitting on it sullenly.He glanced at Rong Jiu from time to time, and then moved away quickly, as if his eyes were burned by some dirty thing-of course, to Draco, it was self-evident what that dirty thing was.

This should have made Rong Jiu feel very embarrassed, she should have come out to smooth things over or something, but obviously, this one is not in the state, leaning absently on the side of the sofa, lowering her eyes, all emotions are covered by the shadow of eyelashes .

"That's the whole story." Harry cleared his throat to signify that his narrative was complete.

Hermione concluded: "That is to say, there is a house elf who calls himself Dobby who comes to warn you not to go back to school, because some dangerous things will happen in school, and these things are likely to be aimed at you. You It could be life-threatening. So you got a letter warning you not to cast spells outside of school, and when you got back to Hogwarts, the access to the platform was blocked, and you were forced to go back to Hogwarts that way. School."

Harry nodded.

Hermione rolled her eyes: "It's hard to imagine that you are going to be locked up in less than two hours, yet it took you a full quarter of an hour to describe such a simple matter!"

Ron grunted, and no one knew what it meant.This aroused Hermione's dissatisfaction: "Ron, you've been weird since you first came in."

Ron curled his lips: "Well, I just think it's weird..." He glanced at Draco again, "With these people, chatting in Hagrid's cabin!"

"Be careful with your words, Weasley!" Draco raised his chin habitually, "In this kind of place, with these people, it's like a nightmare!"

Ron's face flushed again: "No one begged you to come in!"

"Oh, is it?" Draco dragged his tail for a long time, and then glanced around the room with his eyes triumphantly, the intention was obvious - just a few people spoke together to leave him behind.

Harry said awkwardly: "I just think that you are not what you seem. Nine is a kind and intelligent person, and I think she can never misjudge someone. Including what happened yesterday, we were too impulsive .”

Draco snorted, but his expression softened visibly, and he was even a little uncomfortable.

Rong Jiu finally came to his senses: "Harry, you mean, Dobby just stopped you from going back to school, right? Just stopped you?"

"Yes." Harry replied in the affirmative. "He seems to be taking a lot of risks. Hearing him, his master is very cruel to him, and he is not a good wizard."

Draco snorted again.Several people glanced at him strangely, and found that the young man's complexion turned pale again, as if he was a little - ashamed?

Rong Jiu suddenly thought of something, his eyes sharpened suddenly, and he stared at Draco closely.Draco's eyes met hers in mid-air for a moment, then rolled away uncomfortably.

Rong Jiu didn't pursue it further, but put forward his own ideas: "Have you not thought about it? Harry's life experience. Where is Harry special? The special thing is that he once knocked down that powerful black wizard, the mysterious man! That is to say , if something happens this semester, it must have something to do with this person!"

Several people invariably remembered what happened last semester.A ghost possessed by Professor Quirrell, trying every means to get the Philosopher's Stone, and wants to return to this world.

"Will he be possessed by someone again?" When Ron was frightened, his freckles were turning white, which made Rong Jiu find it very funny, so he couldn't help but chuckled softly.And Hermione gave him a reproachful look: "No one wears a big scarf on their head this term!"

"However, maybe there are other ways?" Rong Jiu frowned, "There are some possession techniques in the East, and you can't tell the difference. At most, it looks weird, and that's because a new soul has invaded, and the original body has not been adjusted. The reason, but if there is any difference in appearance, there must be no difference."

"Maybe there are some ways here." Hermione said, "It seems that we have to find a way to go to the first area again."

Ron groaned.

Hermione ignored him: "Harry, you're going to be locked up at Professor Lockhart tonight, aren't you?"

After getting an affirmative answer, Hermione said, "Then we'll go with you!"

"Isn't it Hermione?" Ron's eyes widened in surprise, "It's fine if you circle all his classes with love, and you want to join in the fun even in confinement, just to get close to him?"

A blush came to Hermione's face.However, she raised her chin even more proudly, this posture made her look very similar to Draco: "We are going to Professor Lockhart to gain favorability, maybe he will be willing to sign for us, so that we can go to □District!"

She turned to Rong Jiu: "Jiu, you... Do you want to go together? We don't have a clear goal, and we might have to try our luck a few more times. So we may need more than one signature."

"Okay." Rong Jiu nodded, and then looked at his companion, "Draco, do you want to go together?"

Draco didn't know what state of mind he was in, but he also nodded.This time, the eyes of the two collided in the air for a moment.

At that moment, the two actually had a strange sense of knowing each other.

She guessed it!

Draco felt a surge of joy in his heart, "But she didn't say everything she thought, and she didn't tell me to avoid their actions!"

But Rong Jiu felt a little helpless in his heart.

Dobby, indeed, is the house-elf of the Malfoy family.

But she was inexplicably sure that Draco, like them, was at a loss as to what was going to happen.

The inner activities of the two are of course unknown to others.They were all surprised by Draco's behavior.

"Oh...thank you," said Hermione awkwardly.

Draco nodded coldly.

Fortunately, everyone knew that the Malfoy family always looked down on Muggle-born people, so this behavior did not arouse any resentment, and even Ron didn't complain.

However, promises are one thing. When Lockhart's smiling face appeared in front of several people, Harry, Rong Jiu and Draco all felt a headache, and Hermione's face was already as red as an apple. Draco gave a disgusted look.

"Oh, good evening boys! What are you?"

"That's right, Professor Lockhart." Hermione said softly, blushing, "We heard from Harry about his confinement, and we heard that you needed help. You know, you are a great The wizard, we thought, might be able to do something for you..."

"Of course!" Lockhart smiled brighter, which made Rong Jiu feel nauseous.

"I recognize you, Miss Hermione Granger of Gryffindor! You got perfect marks in the class test. It seems that you must be my loyal reader. To reward you, lovely girl, I will give you a My autographed photo." Lockhart winked at Hermione, who took a breath excitedly, and Rong Jiu gave Hermione a worried look - she was worried that Hermione would be out of breath due to over-excitement baby, or a burst blood vessel.

"Oh, and you, Slytherin girl." Lockhart looked at Rong Jiu with a smile, "Remember my damaged watch, careful and serious girl! Of course, you will also get a piece of my autograph Photo! As for the lads, don't be jealous, show yourself! Ah, yes, I treat you all equally..."

Lockhart babbled and turned back to get the envelope, while Rong Jiu and Harry made the appearance of vomiting behind his back.Hermione gave them both a reproachful look.

Then, each of them got a stack of envelopes.

"These are all written by my admirers. You know, I am a very kind person, and I can't bear these cuties to wait for no reply." Lockhart instructed, "Copy the address and name. , and put them together, I can reply to the corresponding person after I read the letter!"

Rong Jiu stared dumbfounded at the envelope that could submerge her, and then turned her head to look at Lockhart.

For the first time, she felt that being a star was not easy.

————————————————————————————————————————

The jumping candlelight gradually dimmed, bursting out from time to time.The wax oil has congealed a large piece.Rong Jiu rubbed her eyes, habitually wanted to get an envelope, but found nothing.She looked up in surprise, and found that on her right hand side, the stack of written envelopes was already piled up, while the section of unwritten envelopes on the left was empty.

She turned her head to look at Harry and the others, they were almost finished, Draco was already writing the last one, and Hermione only had two or three left; Harry looked the most, but there were only five left. Looks like six.So Rong Jiu smiled sweetly and pushed the envelope in front of Lockhart: "Professor, I've finished it."

Lockhart raised his head and took a look: "It's really sharp!"

Rong Jiu smiled even sweeter: "After all, it's my job to teach you."

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha I just need to write an envelope and you have to write a whole reply letter it will kill you!

"Really sensible!" Lockhart nodded approvingly, "Look, ten points for Slytherin! Oh, is that young man from Slytherin too? Each of you earned ten points for Slytherin, for your warmth and friendliness. Miss Granger too, ten points from Gryffindor! Oh, Harry, you didn't because you were locked up."

"Let me check the time... My God! It's almost twelve o'clock! Thank you for your hard work, go back quickly, children!"

Lockhart chased them out like flies, but at the door, Hermione suddenly turned around and asked, "Professor, can I get an autographed photo in the next class?"

"Oh, of course!" Lockhart nodded happily, "Go back, children!"

The four waved at him, and Hermione closed the door carefully.

"My God," Rong Jiu shook his hands in pain, "My hand must be useless soon."

Harry shook his hands, and Draco rubbed his arms in pain. Only Hermione's calm appearance made Rong Jiu admire him. She is indeed a true student!

"I'm very happy to think that he has to write so many letters." Rong Jiu lowered her voice and smiled wickedly, "We've been writing envelopes for so long, and he's writing letters, ha!"

"Yeah..." Draco replied lazily.

"When you say that, I also feel very relieved... Wait, what?" Harry was also smiling happily, but his expression suddenly froze.

At that moment, a hissing sound, accompanied by a slight friction sound, drilled into Rong Jiu's ears not very clearly.

"What... is that sound?" Rong Jiu looked at the others blankly.

There was even a slight fright on Harry's face.But only Harry, Hermione, and Draco frowned, and listened carefully for a while: "I'm sorry, but... what sound? There are no other sounds here?"

"Yes!" Harry looked at Rong Jiu eagerly, "Jiu, did you hear that? That voice was cursing in a low voice!"

But now, even Rong Jiu's face showed a trace of confusion.

"But, I just heard some hissing." Rong Jiu looked at Harry blankly, "It's like some kind of friction sound, no... like the sound of a flat tire."

"But what I heard was a voice!" The horror on Harry's face suddenly became obvious, "That voice is saying... come here, let me tear you apart..."

Even though it was summer, the bodies of several people were covered in cold sweat.
